WNW Pfalz DIII, Pheon Kest 8w Decals. Alarmstart!
« on: February 02, 2013, 09:20:10 PM »
Ready for take off! DH9s headed for Aachen!






























Even sausage fingers like me seem to do OK with WNW. I tried out Gaspatch buckles this time. Perfect for the Pfalz. Rigged with EZ Line.

Nice job Dave! This is the first example of Gaspatch turnbuckles I've seen and they certainly do look the part. How easy were they to work with, what with all the bending required? The foliage on the base looks very realistic. I'm going to have to invest in some of this stuff.

Cheers,

Chris

P.S. Sausage fingers pretty well describes me too!  ;D

Very nicely done Dave, this is one beautiful looking bird. The metal turnbuckles add that finishing touch and certainly look in scale, the decals are very attractive and really set the model off, congratulations on producing a superb model.
